Thanks guys :-)
Some quick answers, im based in Basildon, Essex and yes the plan was to have it cream, although I change my mind daily :-) was even considering a two tone paint job similar to some Austin healeys, so cream on the lower half and a light metallic green or blue on the top half.
As for build quality thanks :-) its not great but I do try. So far the plan is recondition or replace so everything should be like new, although I want to keep it feeling old, so there will be no cd players, modern dials or switches here. :-)
Some more info on the car, it was rallied for a large chunk of its life and I have paper cuttings about its wins. The engine has some triumph tune parts but not sure what. The gear box is attached with a custom machined spacer and is a close ratio 4 speed with overdrive on three of the gears (so im told)
